You Smile...I Smile

“Why so sad?” I asked her once,
“Why let sorrows pile?”
On her toes she replied thus,
“You smile…I smile.”
Surprised first, I asked her again,
“What makes you think I’m low?”
And once again she reminded me thus,
“Your eyes told me so.”
“How are you? How have you been?”
after all it’s been a while, a lot had changed but her answer not,
“You smile…I smile.”
“Come on dear, it can’t be the eyes”, they already have let me down,
“No...No” she said, “not the eyes, it’s your voice this time around.”
Feeling were my oldest foe, always hidden never revealed,
but you always saw through my mask, always knew, how I feel.
Your smile greets when I’m high,
comforts when feeling low,
I love your smile more than mine, but never did I say you so.
You taught me to smile, to be happy, once a while,
So please wake up, I promise now,
“You smile, I smile….
